Category Full-length documentary

Director Olha OnyshkoSara Farhat

The film offers a unique glimpse into the events that took place during and after World War II in the Eastern European region of Galicia. It pays tribute to the unknown heroes of that war, the regular people who rose above fear and prejudice to do what was right instead of what was easy: Olia Ilkiv, a Ukrainian resistance fighter who endured the theft of her children to save her country, Aharon Weiss, a Jewish man whose family chose to save the life of their worst enemy and Stanislav Bartminski, a Polish priest who took it upon himself to overcome the hatred that tore at his parish.

Filmmakers Olha Onyshko, a native of Lviv, Ukraine, and Sarah Farhat, a native of Beirut, Lebanon, traveled throughout Western Ukraine and Eastern Poland over a period of four years. In this region shrouded by speculation and controversy due to its untold history, they discovered an amazing wealth of stories that had been hidden from not only the West, but also from families.
